XBRL Spain is looking for IT Architectural proposals suitable to be potentially developed as Open Source deliverables by way of Public Fundraising.
The goal is facilitate the capture, analysis, creation and viewing of XBRL reports, to be used by citizens, small investors, IT SMEs and academia, as well as a help for implementing XBRL within supply chains while reducing regulatory burden. This is an initiative to complement and collaborate with existing solutions in the areas in which the current offerings are limited or inexistent, especially on dimensional taxonomies.
The correct IT architecture is a critical success factor in any IT development. Therefore, XBRL Spain, via this Inaugural IT Architectural Competition, invited XBRL IT experts worldwide to propose IT architectures to be potentially used as basis for future developments.
